Learning Partnership Day
Term 1 2024 starts with a Learning Partnership Day, allowing you to meet one-on-one with your child's teacher.
The purpose of this hui is for you to talk about your child so that your child’s teacher has a better understanding of who they are and can design learning based on this information, e.g their interests, strengths, needs, passions, how they best learn, their life beyond school and any family matters that we need to be aware of.
It is also a great opportunity for you to develop an all-important partnership with your child's teacher by being on the same page right from day one of the new school year.
Booking a Learning Partnership Day Time
You can book a time to meet with your child’s class teacher by:
Step 1 - Go to www.schoolinterviews.co.nz
Step 2 - Enter the code uckqr
Step 3 - Enter personal details
Step 4 - Select 1 x time per child per teacher
Step 5 - Submit and you will receive a confirmation email
Each booking is for a 10-minute meeting; for multiple bookings, we suggest you leave a gap between each child.
Before and after the Learning Partnership Meeting you can take your child/children home. School is not open for instruction on this day.
Please note that tamariki do not need to wear their uniform on this day!

ABSENTEE INFORMATION
Phone: 542 3261 (absentee message service)
or
Email: papamoaprimary@papamoa.school.nz
or
Website: http://www.papamoa.school.nz/report_an_absentee
Please include your child’s name, team and room number and reason for absence.
If your child arrives at school after 8.40am they are late. Please ensure they sign in at the office before going to class. Thank you.
As part of our School-Links communication system, an automated text message will go out to all unexplained absences. This number is a reply once only.
While we understand that families sometimes need to take time away from school, it is essential that we as a school are notified.
Any absence longer than 20 school days will need to be approved in advance by the school principal. You can do this by sending an email to papamoaprimary@papamoa.school.nz explaining the reason for your child's absence and the dates they will be away. If your child is absent for longer than 20 school days the MOE instructs us to remove a child from our school roll. If you live outside of our school zone there is no guarantee that your child will be able to re-enrol at Pāpāmoa Primary School. It's important to keep communication open between us. If you have any questions or concerns about this process, please feel free to reach out to us.
Thank you for your cooperation and support in your child's education.
